“The fact that Casey Anthony was the last person to have custody of her daughter, failed to report her missing (or dead) for 31 days, consistently lied once confronted, and the child was found dead and hidden, and she failed to tell what actually happened despite repeated opportunities to do so to her family, friends or law enforcement, (even when faced with the death penalty) was sufficient to find her guilty -- not necessarily of premeditated murder, but certainly all lesser charges. The duct tape and other forensic evidence provided additional, but not necessary, evidence. “Quote from: Judge H. Lee Sarokin

That's what I'm thinking. Speaks volumes as to what GA thinks really happened at this point.

I think in his heart he knows what happened, but I don't believe he knows exactly how it happened any more than we do.

The pool is still there, in my opinion, because there are no bad memories for the A's, either of them, surrounding the pool. I, for one, am proud of him for having it crushed - he has eliminated any possibility of anyone making money off of it. I just hope he watched it being crushed.

If Caylee drowned in the family pool, and her body was never in the car, why have it crushed? Lee had never been paid for the car by his deadbeat sister. It should have been sold and Lee given the money, or give Lee the car and allow him to do with it as he pleased.

I wonder if there was still a bad odor in the car? What could possibly have caused an odor that would linger for that long anyway?

But having the car crushed says a great deal.......

Interesting the timing. Being ordered back to Orlando to serve probation requiring a job somewhere in Fl she will need a car. But truly I believe GA wants the car gone and destroyed. I would too. Who the he11 would want to drive that car? The memory and sadness that comes with it no way. GA smelled death in that car, the death of dear Caylee. If I were him I would want it gone too. I don't begrudge him that.

If you think about it, what else was he going to do with it? He knows his grand-daughters body was in that trunk and he knew long ago the decomp odor came from her body. I suppose he could have kept it but, for what? A reminder? Something else to constantly remind him of the mess his daughter made of her life and and of the entire family? I don't think it had anything to do with the evidence. If that jury didn't get it the first time, he could have driven it to Pinellas County and rubbed their noses in it and they still wouldn't get it.

Her father, George Anthony, brought the car to the junk yard, turned the title over and it was crushed for scrap metal.

The prosecution presented evidence during Anthony’s murder trial that there was human
decomposition found in the trunk.

I think GA might be sending out a public message.

How did he "bring it there". Oh lord, surely he didn't drive it! Maybe he followed a tow truck. Lippmann recently stated they could get more money selling it to a collector that selling it on EBay, getting us all prepared for the upcoming blood money sale. I'm going to give GA credit on this one. Glad he did it even if it was for good PR. Still better than selling it.
